Files renamed now appear as filetype:file

Post by boddah »

About half of the movie torrents that I re-named with Filebot seem to have lost their file extension/properties. When i click them in Windows explorer i get the "how do you want to open this file?" screen and the files do work if i select a media player, but they aren't showing up in KODI because they aren't recognised as video files.

What did i do to create this mess? I've been downloading torrents, renaming them with filebot and then adding them to my kodi library without issue since it was called XBMC.

:idea: Please read How to Request Help.

:?: Screenshots? Logs?
:?: Windows? Mac? Linux?
:?: GUI? CLI? amc script?



:?: Did you perhaps click on Extension: Override and then continue to ignore all the MISSING EXTENSION warnings?

:idea: FileBot can override the extension, but this is disabled by default, and must be explicitly enabled manually each time if you do want to use this feature.
